Ri's POV
After I shot us both with the happiness, we started looking for the key again. Riley showed me something in her hand. At first I thought it was the key, but then I realized she wasn't even holding up anything. I looked at her weird, then began searching for the key once more.

I was literally on all fours, when I felt something sharp under my knee.
"OW!" I yelped.
I put my hand on my knee and looked down at what was there. It was a silver key with a red ribbon tied around it. Carved into the top of the key, it said Castle of the Air. I started yelling to Riley.
"I FOUND IT RILEY!!!! I FOUND THE KEY!!!" I screamed over to Riley, who was on the other side of the field.
She flew over to me, and we both took a closer look at the puny little key, and just stared at it for a while.
"Soooo.... What do we do now?" Riley asked.
"Ummm..."
Riley suddenly snatched the key from my grip, and touched the key to both of our wings. I was confused at first, but was understanding what she was trying to do. We both started rising up, and the key was trying to escape. Riley was holding on as tight as she could, as to not let the key from her grip. The key slipped through her fingers, and we both panicked. I automatically started to fly as fast as I could toward the key, and I heard Riley's wings flapping behind me.

After what felt like days chasing this key, we went through a wall of clouds. The key slowed down, and I snatched it from the air. I looked down, but I couldn't even see the ground we were so high up. Riley elbowed me in the stomach, and pointed directly in front of us. I turned to look, and I saw this ENORMOUS castle. It was many different shades of blue, with other colors as well, like light pink and purple. I started walking to the door, and I slipped the key into the lock on the large doors, coated in a beautiful silver color with golden designs. I slowly turned the key, but I heard no click. The doors started to slide open, and I stepped onto the cobblestone floor, and my footsteps echoed into the large entryway. Riley stepped into the castle as well, the doors closing shut behind her, and we started to explore our new home.
